Company Worlds
A copy of your companyfor testing AI agents.
By invitation, for Butterfly clients
One part of your business, rebuilt in software: its systems, its teams and its working week. AI agents would do the job there a hundred times over before they meet a customer.

01 · How it works
What a Company World is,and how it works.
A working replica of one area of your company, such as motor claims or month-end close. It would run in your cloud, in software, so AI agents could do the job there again and again before they do it for real.
- 01Copy one areaWorking copies of its 3–6 systems, simulated staff in 5–15 roles, its working week and the KPIs you already report.What is inside

- 05Approve, then retestThe task owner approves each task’s blueprint. It would run again every week, and fully each quarter.A blueprint
02 · What is inside
Not a crystal ball.A working replica.
Three ideas get mixed up. A Company World takes its loop from the first and its shape from the second, and is never the third.
01
An environment
Software with a state, the actions an agent may take and a score. Reset it, run it again. The training ground AI labs use.
02
A digital twin of an organisation
A living software model of how a business works: its teams, its systems, the way work flows between them.
03 · Not this
A learned simulator
A neural network that generates scenes, such as the world models made for robots and games. Useful there; no way to test a claims desk.
A Company World is an environment shaped like a digital twin: rule twins of 3–6 systems, a simulated clock, an event queue, simulated staff in 5–15 roles and the KPIs you already report.

A World Week holds hundreds of tasks. Each agent works them one at a time, as your team would, and every one is scored.
The top agent completes about one in five real computer workflows of around 1.6 hours.

03 · The Fidelity Score
No agent is scoreduntil the World passes.
Replay last quarter’s real inputs. The World has to reproduce last quarter’s real KPIs within a tolerance you agree, or it is fixed and replayed until it does.

04 · One week, a hundred times
One week of motor claims,run a hundred times.
A vendor’s agent works a simulated week: Monday’s backlog, Tuesday’s outage, Wednesday’s storm, Thursday’s fraud ring. Scrub through it, then replay any of the hundred weeks.
World Week 1 of 100

The week opens with 50 claims waiting from the weekend.

A hundred weeks
One line per World Week, one row per task. 8 meltdowns flagged. Pick a week to replay it.
FNOL triageClears the bar · 95 of 100
No more than 2 misroutes a week, and faster than the team’s 38 minutes.

It joined the fraud ring’s dots. Its referrals are worth having; an investigator checks every one.

Matched the team’s 97%, and melted down in the outage or the storm in 8 of 100 weeks. It goes to Butterfly Lab for experiments, then a re-test.

05 · The verdict
Clears the bar, with a person checking,or not yet.
A World would end in a decision for each task, taken from a hundred weeks, not one good afternoon. The agent that clears the bar gets a blueprint; the task owner approves it.

06 · Why your own
The model that wins one worldloses another.
Agents take on harder work every quarter. Few companies will hand one their sensitive processes on a leaderboard’s word: the test has to be their own.

Every areais a world.
Five Worlds, each drawn up from its area’s own systems, roles, tasks and KPIs. Motor claims and month-end close come first: claims are the heart of an insurer, and every company closes its books.

- Inference: Butterfly would pay the model bills, and show you what they came to
For Butterfly clients, after a Readiness Diagnostic (£60k). It would run in your cloud; Butterfly staff would have zero access.
What you receive
- 01The £-ranked map of the area: measured frequency × estimated £ cost for each task
- 02The World itself, running in your cloud
- 03At least 100 seeded World Weeks per candidate agent
- 04A P&L for each agent against the human baseline
- 05For each task, how often it is right every time, not right once
- 06A failure taxonomy and a log of safety incidents
- 07A blueprint for each task
- 08Retested every week
Candidates side by side: the vendor’s agent, your own agent, and frontier models at different effort levels. AI judges rank them; the people who do the job confirm the £ figures.
0908 · How to start
Worlds are by invitation,for Butterfly clients.
Every World starts with the Readiness Diagnostic: your top tasks, priced, and the first ones tested.
- Now
Company Worlds are made by invitation, for Butterfly clients.
- Next
The first World, made with a Butterfly client: motor claims or month-end close.
- Then
More areas and more clients, once the first World has passed its fidelity backtest.
